The short answer

The closest alternative to the Pequignet Élégance is the TAG Heuer Carrera Day Date ($4,250) — looks nearly identical and Automatic. If price is the constraint, the Hamilton American Classic Spirit of Liberty Auto at $1,195 covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Pequignet Élégance Chronograph is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Automatique) and Same family (Élégance).
